Amazing to think that the Wii U could very well drop below the 10k mark before even the Vita did---My Predictions as of September 2012:Vita will be discontinued in 2013 - Wii U will struggle after launch, PS4 will NOT launch in 2013

Consoles always sell less than portables. Add a severe lack of support in the months of January and February and this is what you get. No surprise and completely Nintendo's own fault.---Please note: The above post may contain sarcasm. Please use your senses to determine if this is the case or not.

So explain why the Wii U at launch far outsold the Vita? If it was simply down to Vita being a handheld, I'm sure things wouldn't be so bad for it right now.

We're talking about not just any console but a Nintendo console. It took the Vita quite a bit longer to reach the Wii U's LTD sales. However the drop off from the Wii U has been extremely steep.---My Predictions as of September 2012:Vita will be discontinued in 2013 - Wii U will struggle after launch, PS4 will NOT launch in 2013

So now the Wii U is in close battle with... the PSP? You'd think it would at least be close to the PS3. And it's being beaten by the vita software wise?! The vita doesn't even have games!---Reaver of Souls.. I have become something... Darker Than Black

Comparing to the other numbers, Wii U is doing fine. But all numbers are rather low. Common at this time of the year.

Well, yeah. Mostly due to it being a home console with a lack of support right now. There is nothing else to it, at least in my opinion.

It's a Nintendo console, which is why people buy it: Nintendo games. If they don't show p in the months after, people won't buy.---Please note: The above post may contain sarcasm. Please use your senses to determine if this is the case or not.

Not really. Many third party devs, as well as Nintendo, planned to release many games during the launch window yet if the games aren't done, they aren't done.---NNID: Ko-sanCurrently Playing: Zelda2, Muramasa, One Piece
